The European Union called on Israel to immediately stop its strikes on Syrian government targets while also saying Syria must calm ethnic conflict involving the Druze community in the south of the country.
"We urge Israel to immediately cease its strikes on Syrian territory, including on key institutions in Damascus, which jeopardise the lives of civilians and risk undermining Syria's transition," EU spokesperson Anouar El Anouni told AFP.
"We also call on Syria's transitional authorities to de-escalate the situation in Sweida, which has already resulted in a high number of casualties," he added.
